Most AI pictures arrive all at once, and you can't direct where anything goes. claude-drawing-skill works a different way: Claude writes code that computes every mark on the page, in any of 74 art styles.

Here's what it does, how to add it, a first prompt to try, and the catch.

What it gives Claude

  • 74 styles, including ink wash, watercolour, impasto oil, stained glass, ukiyo-e, clay, pixel art and cyberpunk.
  • Exact control of the picture: placement, empty space and accents are placed, not sampled.
  • The same picture every time: the same seed gives the same result.
  • Stage snapshots, so you can show a picture being made, not just the end result.
  • No image model: it runs offline, on a normal CPU, with no GPU, key or quota.
